SIRAI was now in Er0s pack house, and was trying my best to focus on the task at hand. Cansil was lunging around the woods, waiting for me to return and I was grateful for that. He really took being my protector seriously.It was the first time that any of my mates had tried to be kind to me, and I was glad. I didn’t feel like I was so alone anymore, and I felt I could be a part of a pack and the bigger picture. Cansil was truly sent by the goddess to relieve me of my heartbreak.I sighed as I swept the area as calmly as I could. I was damn tired, and I wanted to crash in a bed, but I couldn’t do that too. Everything was so cray these days, and I would have to make sure that there was no speckle of dust in here, so I wouldn’t have to loose my job.In between the chores, I scented a unique scent. Was that Eros? With a gasp, I looked up and he was standing by the door, looking at me like he knew something that I didn’t. A sheen of sweat coated my brows which had nothing to do with my
SIRAEros pulled me against his body and then in one move, I was slammed across the nearby wall so fast that my head spun. I couldn’t even think properly at think properly at all. My tears was wild as it rolled down my eyes. “How dare you talk to me that way?” He snapped.I panted. “I was only saying the truth. You don’t treat me right, so you don’t have the right to talk about my friend. Cansil is a good man, and he has proven it at so many points that he has my best interest at hand. He is the kindest human ever, and that is something that can never be changed. I can’t say the same for you,” I muttered.I shook in fear as he glared right at me. I shouldn’t have said that, but I couldn’t seem to shut up. I was simply spitting out all of my though, and that was foolhardy. Oh, Moon Goddess! I had to get a grip on reality. I was really loosing it. Eros face loomed closer to me. “You’re misstepping,” he said calmly.I closed my eyes in pain of those words. “You did it first,” I cried
SIRAI have been sulking for a couple of minutes. I didn’t get it at all. Why couldn’t I do things the way I wanted for once? Ugh! I rolled on my small bed till I fell down on my butt. Ouch! It was not as though I had so many friends, so they had to restrict me.No-one visited me at all.I was literally a loner.I had no-one.Then, why couldn’t I have Cansil as my friend? I could remember how dad looked at me the first time Cansil had come over. It was as though he couldn’t quite believe that a male friend had come to visit me at all.Was it because Cansil was a male, and not a female, so he found it hard to actually believe a word that I said? It was so annoying that this kept on repeating itself. My father should really get past his sexist thoughts and realise I wasn’t happy. I had informed them about this very fact the last time, but they had not done anything about it.A knock…Now, what do they want? I walked over to the door, and sprang it open. Mom stood at the other side of t
SIRAI stared at Cansil. He seemed so serious with his accusations, and he had hit home. How do I act like Eros didn’t do what he claimed without making it seem like I was covering up? I was never a good liar, and that was the problem.“I should go and…”“Stop, Cansil. You wouldn’t get into a problem because you are so mad unnecessarily. Eros didn’t do anything wrong. It is all a misunderstanding,” I said quickly.Cansil gave me one of his serious looks. “Are you sure about this?I nodded quickly. I hated lying to him because he had been so kind to me, but I had no choice. The last thing we needed was a war between packs because of me. War was never good, and it ought to be avoided at all means. This was one of the reasons I was trying to hide things. Another reason I wouldn’t be able to tell him the truth is because I didn’t want two men to fight over me. The gossip would be relentless and to me, it was a waste of time. It was best to handle things in another light to avoid more sca
SIRAI stood there for a long time as I wished that Cansil was there with me. It had taken me a minute to figure out who those men were and I felt sad that he had to be manhandled like that. He was the crowned Alpha for crying out loud, and he ought to be treated with respect, but nothing of that light was being shown to the world.“Excuse me, madam,” someone said behind me.Madam? I was still quite young so I don’t understand why I was being called that. Anyway, all I wanted to do was to vanish from all these. I didn’t want to stay here for a minute longer. Without turning to look at who had called me, I ran as fast as I could, going out of the market.A couple of my mates could be seen at the other side of the road. I quickly turned my direction. I didn’t know where I was going. I simply moved like there was no tomorrow. I wanted nothing more but for them all to disappear. It was so annoying that they would keep doing things.I didn’t know when I got to the fountain. I was so tired
SIRAMy eyes bulged out of my sockets. I should have expected this. My eyes went round in pain, and I wished that all these would stop. Neera’s fingers tightened around the chin area. “What have I done?” I cried.“Shut up!” Neera snapped.I swallowed the lump in my throat. This was so unfair that all these was happening to me. She had simply deceived my parents to get to me. I was so scared about what all these really meant. I didn’t want this to keep happening anymore.“Look at you writhe,” she mocked. I tried to shift my gaze, but she jerked my chin closer even more, like she want to suck all my energy from me. It worst moment of my life, and I had nothing to save myself with.“You really think that you stand a chance with Eros. I know I informed you earlier, but I would tell you again. If you try to get close to him, then blood would flow, and it would definitely not be mine. Don’t say I didn’t warn you. You’re a lowlife, and you should remain that way,” she snapped coldly, and th
SIRA I stared at Eros. He looked at me like he was bored out of his mind, and it made my stomach tighten painfully. Why had I been brought to this class? I looked at Cansil, and he seemed oblivious of my panic. The thing is, I wanted to flee, but at the same time, I didn’t want to look like a coward, so I put my head down and followed Cansil into the class. He walked deeper and faster into the class, and I quickened my pace too. Then, suddenly, I hit him from behind. He was quick as he turned around, stabilising me in the process.“Sorry,” I muttered.“It’s fine,” Cansil said softly as helped me to my sit.I swallowed the lump in my throat when he sat down beside me. How was I going to handle all these right now? I had no idea what I was going to do to get out of the awful situation that I had found myself. I turned to Cansil, and he was beaming. That only made me more upset. Why did this have to happen like this? I wish there was a way to handle the situation in a way that I might
SIRA“Let her go,” Nora said coldly as she stared down at Ada.I blinked in shock at the whole thing. Nora is the eldest daughter to Elder Gage. She was always in the shadows, and never really spoke to me. So, why did she deem it fit to actually try to defend me right now. I groaned as my hands twisted painfully behind my back. Wherever the case may be, I wish that she would let me go. This was getting too much now, and I was so hurt at the whole thing.“What would you do if I choose not to listen to any of your words?” Ada, snapped as she squeezed my hand harder.Nora smirked at her. “I believe you know who you’re talking to, right? I may be Elder Gage’s daughter, but I always break people’s limbs first before my father finishes them off,” she said easily as her brown eyes glowed menacingly on Ada.Ada squeezed my hand for less than one minute, then she released me. I staggered backwards, rubbing my already injured arm. The pain that shot up my arm was blinding, but I gritted my tee
SIRADriving down there was the hardest thing ever for me at this moment, I hated the guilt that filled me as his scent filled that call, it was there every where it was infinitely him. How I was suffocated in hisspace in a way I couldn’t find unpleasant.I drove with caution and speed, already my phone was ringing and looking at it, it was him.I tore my gaze from the phone, I didn't want the situation where he would show up and ruin thing's.My hand fit the wheel, as I sat in the driver’s seat with an unpretentious confidence and courag, I was driving crazily, I drove above the speed limit as if to maintain the façade that I was really scared.The wind pulsed through me and the music it played in my ears was melancholic.It reminded me of the soft sound of fabric hitting the floor in death, or the sound Of teeth on the nape of ma neck, the tug of my hair and strangle.What ever way it came to my mind, the wind reminded me of death.My pulse drifted between my heart as I felt i
SIRAAt first when he talked about seeing me the previous night my heart had skipped, for some funny reason I knew that Cansil coming here could spell trouble for the little bit of peace that was around.Mu heart still felt heavy, in a way I couldn't change the fact that I had been trailed here just last night.That bit of darkness was still around me unwilling to depart, it was as though enveloping everything that had for do with my soul at that moment.While all of this is going on, he came in with another bad newsWhat?It was hard to believe what had just happened under our own noses, my finger's were literally trembling.It meant no one was saved, I was starting to think this had to do with both Davina and Neara, but at the moment I know that bringing that up would disrupt anything that was going on at the moment.I could not think about what to do about the whole situation, I was confused about what to do and how we were going to go about it."Are you sure of what you are sayi
EROSThe next two weeks were all about Sira and me. We spent every moment ofevery day together. I was letting her in slowly into my life In a way I never thought possible.At that moment she was no longer Sira the maid, she was more precious to me than even that, She practically moved into my room at first I thought I was mean to her by taking her phone, so as the days proceeded I handed it back to herShe was over.every night and I loved it. I knew it was still very important for me to connect with her as I could picture myself starting a family already—She was carrying my child anyways.At that moment , I felt everything was perfect. It suddenly seemed like all I had to do was trust her, it seemed like the missing piece, perhaps if I had dropped my pride at the beginning, it would have been so easy for me to deal with.And yes, her mother came in once in a while. Suddenly it looked like I was standing right at the end of the tunnel with the light all shining down right at my fac
SIRASeeing no one I hastened my step, I could literally feel the sound coming from my heart as it was heavy with a thundering sound.“Who is there?” I breathed.I directed a sarcastic gaze at the dark part of the wood.As the hour minute ticked I could hear it in my heart, I took steps back cautious that I wasn't alone.The words I was going to say were pierced in my chest. I knew it had to be something out there or someone… It hurts all the same, the manner at which my heart was beating.A frustrated sound traveled up my throat, but I kept it locked in. It was better to be quiet than having any emotions at the moment. I avoided the gaze into the dark, though it burned me deep in my soul.The Pressure in me burst into tingles and flame. My veins burned up like a line of fire willing to ignite shooting flames of light behind my eyes.A shudder fluttered through my body as anxiety poured through my bloodstream, before a languid heat spread.As I calm down, I realized my leg wa
SIRA POV.I stood still, obviously shocked, this was obviously what I dreaded the most.I really don’t like Eros and Cansil meeting each other, because it doesn’t end well.“So this is it Sira?” He asked me with a very annoyed glare which managed to send chills down my spine.“You should mind the way you speak to her,” Cansil stepped in and that was when Eros faced him with an irritated look.“And who invited you?” Eros demanded with rage written all over his face.“You can’t just speak to Sira anyhow in my presence and expect me to keep quiet,” Cansil said without an ounce of fear, and Eros glared at him angrily.When all these was happening, I just kept mute and watched them bicker.I stared at Eros deeply, and I managed to figure out that he was very jealous.His face showed how bitter he felt at that moment when he saw I and Cansil together.He quickly turned to look at me, and his stares that moment felt like......It felt like he was suspecting me and was also beginning to doubt
SIRA Bright Light struck my eyes followed by a loud honk. I shut my eyes due to the immense pain I felt and by the time I opened it, I noticed a man staring at me.Soon, I guessed it was the cab I ordered. I wanted to give him a scolding of his life but not while I was standing on the walkway by the roadside so I took my seat and told him my destination.As soon as the car took off, I began lamenting.“Do you want to get me blind?” I spoke authoritatively.The next thing that followed was an immediate and reckless halting of the car. He stepped on the break not caring if I was going to bang my head against the seat.“Now you want to end my life?” I uttered, angrily this time.He turned to face me as he soon gave a reply, “I did what I did so you’d notice I already came to pick you up sooner if your eyes weren’t glued to your phone and so I had no other choice than to flash my car lights at you.”After saying this, he rudely just turned on the engine and continued driving without even
EROS POVThere was a yummy chicken Marsala placed before me. The aroma of the food was capable of sweeping you off your feet, but I wasn’t happy.In fact, I didn’t have any appetite to eat as I felt disappointed earlier today.“Why didn’t she want to see me?” I couldn’t help but ask myself as I remembered what happened exactly today.“She watched me leave, which is very unlike her?” I couldn’t help but ask myself in surprise.“Was Cansil there with her, and that was why she probably didn’t want to see me?” I couldn’t help but ask myself, as different thoughts rummaged in my head.I kept on stirring the food before me, without making an attempt to eat it.“Your highness,” The new maid walked in, with a light smile on her face.I hissed lightly and shook my head, prepared to ignore her until she made the next statement.“Your highness, A lady is here to see you,” She said with a light smile, as I quickly turned to stare at her.“Who?” I couldn’t help but ask“She said her name was Sira?
SIRAI was in my room, going through some certain things on my phone when I suddenly began to feel nauseous.Quickly, I rushed into the restroom to throw up, which I eventually did and it managed to get me confused.“What’s going on?” I couldn’t help but ask myself as I walked out of the bathroom slowly.I sat on a vacant chair as different thoughts ran through my head.I just couldn’t help but think that moment.Slowly, I got up and went straight to my closet, picking a blue baggy jeans and a red crop top.Different thoughts ran through my head, but I decided to go to the hospital so I could confirm if I was okay or not.“Why exactly am I suddenly feeling nauseous?” I couldn’t help but ask myself with a crumpled look.I shrugged and quickly dressed up, before I picked up my bag.Briskly, I walked out of my apartment and flagged down a cab as I headed straight to the hospital.The drive was just about ten minutes or so, but I didn’t know when I got to the hospital.On getting there, I
SIRAGrrr…My alarm clock rang, thereby interrupting my blissful sleep.I turned the clock off then tried to go back to sleep, but it was to no avail.I was fed up because I still wanted to sleep more.With a sour expression, I groped my way to my bathroom then did my morning routine as quickly as I could.On my return to my room, I decided to check my messages before going about my chores.“Sira” mom yelled just when I was about to click on a message from Karen.“Ma'am” I yelled in returnI was tempted to open her message but because I didn't want to scroll through thirty messages when I returned, I tossed my phone on my bed then walked towards the door.We were supposed to hang out yesterday, but because of Eros, I had canceled our meeting.I was certain she had flooded my phone with the pictures she and the girls took at the girl's night out that was held the previous day.I was about to walk into the living room when I bumped into mom, who was on her way to fetch me.“When are you
